All cars from the MTD Car Pack [ATTACH]29194[/ATTACH] Gremlin, with a Viper engine kinda fun, but not very interesting. [ATTACH]29195[/ATTACH] Some Chevy, which is not interesting at all. [ATTACH]29196[/ATTACH] Ermagherd Dodge Duuuuuuurt Fun for Europeans, pretty lalalalala from an objective point of view. [ATTACH]29197[/ATTACH] And no, that doesn't change with dinosaurs included. [ATTACH]29198[/ATTACH] Hmmmmeh okay this HW run was sort of fun. [ATTACH]29199[/ATTACH] It's a FNF Eclipse! But I hate the Eclipse! [ATTACH]29200[/ATTACH] It's olive. And because it's round, it looks like an olive, too. [ATTACH]29201[/ATTACH] Now this one is rather ok..... it's not released yet? Blimey, sorry. [ATTACH]29202[/ATTACH] I never liked the F50 but this GT version is freaking fast. So it's alright for my books. [ATTACH]29203[/ATTACH] My personal fav, the 3-Eleven. Back in the good old TDU2 club racing days, the 2-Eleven was the best A3 car around. Nostalgic piece of kit, this. But I also like newer Lotuses. [ATTACH]29204[/ATTACH] Today we got me a Cayman GTS. [ATTACH]29205[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29206[/ATTACH] Looks great in yellow, just like the 911 Turbo S. [ATTACH]29207[/ATTACH] Some captures while I helped @Rassva get his Cayman. [ATTACH]29209[/ATTACH] The great lighting was done by Rass' headlights :P [ATTACH]29210[/ATTACH] Unedited ones, too. [ATTACH]29211[/ATTACH]

They just call the Mountain Dew offices and ask which cars they should add. Unfortunatly they happened to call an employee who knows nothing about cars. He probably even drives a Dodge Dart.

Had some money spare on my PayPal account so I bought the pack. Not all cars are as exciting, no. The Holden Sedan is funny but not "let's spend money" funny. More of a barnfind car tbh. F50 LM is exciting. S2 990 without a single upgrade. That is spectacularly good. And the sound. I never really liked the F50 but it's properly exciting in LM trim. Dodge Dart well hmmyeah, it's a Dart. I've always liked it because it's a US car which we don't get in Europe, but the sound is horrible and it's slow. The Gremlin and the Vega are the same sort of crappy American mid 70's oil crisis mobiles which are funny looking but also slow as phuk. The Gremlin with a Viper engine though, that is epic fun. The Eclipse, I'm not a big JDM kind of guy, especially not into the Eclipse from this gen, but the body mods are nice and it drives pretty slick because it's AWD as stock. The most exciting for me is the Lotus 3-Eleven, the 2-Eleven already brought that TDU2 Club vibe back, but the 3-Eleven actually justifies the title because it's awesome. And very nice to drive. In every pack there have been more than 3 stock cars which look intruiging. This one, not so much. It also didn't help that the "leak" covered up basically everything there's left to implement.

[ATTACH]29168[/ATTACH] I bought one of the most expensive cars in the game, the 250 GT California, so damn right I had to drive it. [ATTACH]29169[/ATTACH] When everything goes wrong, pick a car, and drive. TDU mentality. Now in Forza that is harder than in TDU because the map is so small. But anyway, I picked a Focus RS and took it for a spin. [ATTACH]29170[/ATTACH] Orange color which suits the sun, and something else which you're about to see. [ATTACH]29171[/ATTACH] It's fast, too! [ATTACH]29172[/ATTACH] Spoiler alert! [ATTACH]29173[/ATTACH] A tunnel. [ATTACH]29174[/ATTACH] An airport hangar... [ATTACH]29175[/ATTACH] Yes, I wanted to visit Blizzard again. [ATTACH]29176[/ATTACH] Le ice. [ATTACH]29177[/ATTACH] It's actually a Horizon Edition Focus with drift skills boost so snow drifting galore! [ATTACH]29178[/ATTACH] A dish. [ATTACH]29179[/ATTACH] More snowy action... [ATTACH]29180[/ATTACH] And we reached the Blizzard peak (from which, I didn't know, you can see Surfers Paradise...) [ATTACH]29181[/ATTACH] Next expansion! [ATTACH]29182[/ATTACH] Suddenly the bright orange color makes sense :) [ATTACH]29183[/ATTACH]

[ATTACH]29167[/ATTACH]

Some more from today. [ATTACH]29137[/ATTACH] BMW M3 Drift Build... [ATTACH]29138[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29139[/ATTACH] Pretty nice to drive, too. [ATTACH]29140[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29141[/ATTACH] Some more M4 GTS... [ATTACH]29142[/ATTACH] More Porsche Macan shots... [ATTACH]29143[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29144[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29145[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29146[/ATTACH] Clean version... [ATTACH]29147[/ATTACH] ...dirt version. Which one is better?

Taking a closer look at the cover [ATTACH]29134[/ATTACH] The release of NFS PB will go paired with that of the new M5?

I'm boring you with some more "Sleepe-rs Avant" shots. [ATTACH]29115[/ATTACH] Jumps for Forzathon... [ATTACH]29116[/ATTACH] ...Skill chains for Forzathon... [ATTACH]29117[/ATTACH] ...Reward for Forzathon :) [ATTACH]29125[/ATTACH] I for some reason like photographing logo's on metallic paintwork. Hey, everyone has his peculiarities, am I right? [ATTACH]29118[/ATTACH] I felt the need to take the Jon Olsson S1 out again. Don't know why actually. [ATTACH]29119[/ATTACH] The sharp nosed '96 Silvia being a guilty pleasure of mine, but it's a pain to photograph properly, so I just made one on which you can't even see the car properly. Work smart, not hard. I mean... sod it, let's move on. [ATTACH]29120[/ATTACH] Remind me one day to take the TE37's off of this because they look absolutely apalling. [ATTACH]29121[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29122[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29123[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29124[/ATTACH] Some particularly random SLK shots. [ATTACH]29126[/ATTACH] Please don't question why it turned out that this and the GT86 are in the same spec. They just happened to look ace in this trim. [ATTACH]29127[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29128[/ATTACH] I should give my M4 more attention than I currently do. [ATTACH]29129[/ATTACH] To break the chain of photographing nothing but German cars, a nice bunch of '86 shots. [ATTACH]29130[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29131[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29132[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29133[/ATTACH]

[ATTACH]29110[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29111[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29112[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29113[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29114[/ATTACH] I totally am not a fan of German cars btw :D

ENTRY POST (slightly edited) [ATTACH]29108[/ATTACH]

While I get your point, it takes time to figure out the best way to "snap a picture". I think it's more fun to give everyone the same chances (let's face it, all the entries in tbc come from 3 different games) and that you're able to get creative with the tools a game gives you. If the theme is "NFS Car List", good and eligible shots go beyond driving somewhere and capturing a moment from it. From that shot from me that won, it took me about 35 minutes to find a location and a weather setup alone, and a dozen of failed attempts. The result is an image I'm still proud of. I don't think there's anything you can edit to that shot to make it better, which imo is the sport. When you can edit, the contest does indeed not go beyond snapping a picture, and is mostly relying on third party software to save your day. TL;DR everyone gets the same tools and guide, up to you to exploit them in the best way. (this is not a rant towards people who edit their images, just know the seperation between tbc and your own personal gallery space)

If your picturing and composition skills are too bad that you have to innaturally disguise them, why should you be picked for the best picture? *grabs popcorn*

Thanks @Diablo! those three were all the ones I doubted a bit but I'm glad you like them :) Some more, I picked up the Turbo S today, and found out the RS4 also has a "sleeper kit", so I built a speedy car out of it :) [ATTACH]29081[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29082[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29083[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29084[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29085[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29086[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29087[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29088[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29089[/ATTACH]

Going on a short vacay so I'll dump the latest haul and I wish you the best of luck without me the coming days :) [ATTACH]29035[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29036[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29037[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29031[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29032[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29033[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29034[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29038[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29039[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29040[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29041[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29042[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29043[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29044[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]29045[/ATTACH]

Wasn't the voting closing on Monday?

I'm sometimes streaming on Beam (http://beam.pro/poiestar) so keep that in mind when you're bored :) (mostly online adventure and not scheduled because busy)

A few from today. [ATTACH]28991[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28992[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28993[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28994[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28995[/ATTACH]

Captures of the Carrera GT. [ATTACH]28975[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28976[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28977[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28978[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28979[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28980[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28981[/ATTACH]

I had to revive this thread again. [ATTACH]28968[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28967[/ATTACH] Another bunch of my 918... [ATTACH]28969[/ATTACH] F-150 Raptor which I like. Meh shot though. [ATTACH]28960[/ATTACH] Now that all the car reviewers' Ford GT video's are up, I decided to take it out again. [ATTACH]28961[/ATTACH] After cruising with a friend I went on some solo cruising with the 488 GTB. [ATTACH]28962[/ATTACH] Doesn't this look familiar :) [ATTACH]28963[/ATTACH] Also, I need to use my 458 Speciale for a photo cruise one day. Anyway, some of the highlights from a little cruise with a real life friend of mine. [ATTACH]28964[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]28965[/ATTACH] Theme: SUV, X6 is mine. [ATTACH]28966[/ATTACH] Theme: classic muscle, Charger is mine. [ATTACH]28970[/ATTACH] Theme: Ferrari vs Lambo, 488 is mine. [ATTACH]28971[/ATTACH] Theme: we started up the session in random cars.
